Installation

Connecting the AC Power Cord

This projector uses nominal input voltages of 100-120 V or 200-240 V AC. This projector automatically selects the correct input voltage. It is designed to work with singlephase power systems having a grounded neutral conductor. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not plug into any other type of power system.

Consult your authorized dealer or service station if you are not sure of the type of power being supplied.

Connect the projector with all peripheral equipment before turning the projector on. (See page 15-17 for connection.)

CAUTION

For safety, unplug the AC power cord when the projector is not in use. When this projector is connected to an outlet with the AC power cord, it is in Stand-by mode and consumes a little electric power.

Connect the AC power cord (supplied) to the projector.

The AC outlet must be near this equipment and must be easily accessible.

NOTE ON THE POWER CORD

AC power cord must meet requirement of the country where you use the projector. Confirm the AC plug type with the chart below and proper AC power cord must be used. If supplied AC power cord does not match your AC outlet, contact your sales dealer.

If the projector is locked with a PIN code, PIN code Input Dialog Box will appear. Enter the PIN code as instructed below.

Enter a PIN code

Select a number by pressing the Point 7 8 buttons and fix the number with the SELECT button. The number will change to " ". If you fixed an incorrect number, move the pointer to "Set" or "Clear" once by pressing the Point d button, then return to "PIN code". Enter the correct number again.

Repeat this step to complete entering a four-digit number. "1234" is set as the initial PIN code at the factory.

When the four-digit number is fixed, the pointer will automatically move to "Set". Press the SELECT button so that you can start to operate the projector.

If you entered an incorrect PIN code, "PIN code" and the number ( ) will turn red and disappear. Enter the correct PIN code all over again.

What is PIN code?

PIN code is a security code using Personal Identification Number that allows the person who knows it to operate the projector. Setting PIN code prevents others except the specific users from operating the projector.

A PIN code consists of a four-digit number. Refer to PIN code lock function in Setting on page 46, 47 for locking operation of the projector with your PIN code.

CAUTION ON HANDLING PIN CODE

If you forget your PIN code, the projector can no longer be started. Set a new PIN code with special care, write it down in column on page 63 of this manual, and keep it at hand. Should the PIN code be missing or forgotten, consult your dealer or service center.

16

The preparation display will disappear after 30 seconds.

TO MAINTAIN THE LIFE OF THE LAMP, ONCE

YOU TURN THE PROJECTOR ON, WAIT AT

LEAST 5 MINUTES BEFORE TURNING IT OFF.

Note:

When the On start function is on, this projector will be turned on automatically by connecting the AC power cord to an AC outlet. (p45)

Do not operate the projector continuously without rest. Continuous use may result in shortening the lamp life. Turn off the projector and give it a rest about an hour in every 24 hours.

The running speed of cooling fans is changed according to the temperature inside the projector.

Do not put the projector in a case before the projector is cooled enough.

If the WARNING indicator blinks or emits a red light, see "Warning Indicator" on page 49.

While the POWER indicator is blinking, lamp is being cooled down and the projector cannot be turned on. Wait until the POWER indicator becomes red to be turned on again.

For assisting the cooling fans' operation, the projector is equipped with a large capacitor. While the projector is operating, the capacitor charges electricity. When disconnecting the AC plug from AC outlet, cooling fans start to run about 1 minutes until the capacitor is discharged.
